O-Shot for Female Sexual Wellness
Your intimate wellness matters just as much as your skin, your confidence, and your overall health, and at About Face Medical Aesthetics, we believe you deserve to feel like the best version of yourself in every way.
The O-Shot (Orgasm Shot) is a non-surgical, PRP-based treatment designed to support female sexual enhancement, address common concerns like low libido and vaginal dryness, and help women reconnect with their bodies. Whether you're navigating changes from menopause, postpartum recovery, or simply want to invest in your sexual health and wellbeing, the O-Shot offers a natural, medically backed path forward.
What Is the O-Shot?
The O-Shot is a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment that uses your body's own growth factors to rejuvenate and restore intimate tissue. Developed by Dr. Charles Runels, it was designed specifically to address female sexual dysfunction and enhance sexual response — without hormones, synthetic chemicals, or surgery.
PRP therapy has long been used in regenerative medicine to accelerate healing and stimulate tissue renewal. When applied to the vaginal and clitoral areas, those same regenerative properties can improve blood flow, increase sensitivity, and support the natural function of intimate tissue.
The result is a treatment that works with your body, not against it.
What Can the O-Shot Help With?
Women seek the O-Shot for a wide range of concerns related to female sexual health and intimate wellness, including:
- Low libido or diminished sexual desire
- Difficulty achieving orgasm or changes in orgasm intensity
- Vaginal dryness and discomfort during intercourse
- Reduced vaginal sensitivity or arousal
- Stress urinary incontinence (leaking with coughing, sneezing, or exercise)
- Postpartum changes to intimate tissue
- Sexual side effects related to menopause or hormonal shifts
- Lichen sclerosus symptoms
If any of these concerns feel familiar, you're not alone, and the O-Shot may be an option worth exploring at your consultation.
How Does the O-Shot Work?
The O-Shot process is straightforward, minimally invasive, and performed entirely in-office at About Face Medical Aesthetics.
Step 1
A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm, similar to a routine blood draw.
Step 2
Your blood is placed in a centrifuge, which separates the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the rest of the blood. This PRP is concentrated with growth factors that drive tissue regeneration.
Step 3
A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
Step 4
The PRP is carefully injected into specific areas of the vagina and clitoris. These injections are designed to stimulate new cell growth, increase blood flow, and enhance sensitivity in the treated tissue.
The entire appointment typically takes under an hour, and most patients report little to no discomfort during the procedure.
What Results Can I Expect?
Because the O-Shot uses your body's own biology, results develop gradually as new tissue forms and nerve sensitivity improves. Many women notice initial changes within a few weeks, with continued improvement over three to six months.
Reported benefits of the O-Shot include:
- Increased sexual desire and arousal
- Enhanced sensitivity and more satisfying orgasms
- Improved natural lubrication and reduced vaginal dryness
- Greater comfort during intercourse
- Reduction in urinary leakage
- Increased confidence in intimate situations
Individual results vary based on your unique anatomy, health history, and the specific concerns you're looking to address. Your provider will discuss realistic expectations with you during your consultation.
Is the O-Shot Right for Me?
The O-Shot may be a good fit if you:
- Are experiencing changes to your sexual response due to age, hormonal shifts, or menopause
- Have noticed vaginal dryness, discomfort during sex, or loss of sensation
- Are struggling with stress urinary incontinence
- Want a non-hormonal option for improving intimate wellness
- Are looking for a natural, regenerative treatment approach
The O-Shot is generally not recommended during pregnancy or for women with active infections, certain blood disorders, or other specific contraindications. A thorough consultation with our team will help determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many O-Shot treatments will I need?
Many patients see meaningful results after a single treatment. Some women choose to repeat the treatment annually or as needed to maintain results. Your provider will help you build a plan that fits your goals.
Is the O-Shot painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Topical numbing is applied before any injections, and the PRP is drawn from your own blood, so the risk of adverse reactions is low.
How long do O-Shot results last?
Results typically last between one and three years, though this varies by individual. Ongoing improvements may be supported by pairing the O-Shot with complementary wellness treatments such as hormone replacement therapy.
Can I combine the O-Shot with other treatments?
Yes. The O-Shot pairs well with hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and other wellness services we offer. Your provider can help you identify the right combination for your needs.
Is the O-Shot FDA-approved?
PRP therapy itself is FDA-cleared. The O-Shot is a specific application of PRP performed by trained providers. As with all emerging treatments, we encourage you to ask questions during your consultation so you feel fully informed.
